Hear from a local cheesemonger about New England’s rich dairy history and learn about the Connecticut cheesemakers that are currently leading the artisan American cheese movement. Kate Redin, owner of New Curds on the Block cheese shop in Oakville, will walk us through the region’s lesser-known cheese history and its active contemporary landscape. After the talk, join Kate for a Pop-Up Cheese Shop and have the opportunity to purchase cheeses from regional dairies and cheesemakers.
